My choices would be American Airlines, with Continental as a back-up. Continental's transatlantic hub in EWR is just a short connection away and their program is reciprocal with Northwest, for your travel to Asia. I would shoot for Exec Platinum on AA and Gold on CO. AA's commuter strength in BOS and nearby transatlantic hub in JFK make it an easy choice.

Another HUGE factor in favor of AA is the partnership with USAirways. While you won't enjoy reciprocal elite benefits, you will be able to avoid having orphan US Dividend Rewards miles.
